Embed ads in my Software

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by sudhirmangla, Nov 22, 2008.

    I have 2-3 software products all are freeware. I want to earn some money by embedding some ads in the software itself. Is there a option in adsense so that It can used in Software products.

    Or is there any other service for making money from freeware software.

    You cannot embed adsense ads in the software. However, you can embed your own side ad that contains adsense ads. So create your own site and embed ads for your own site.

    you cant embed adsense ads directly in the software, I think this is a great solution for you; create a minisite and embed your site URL in the software. Fill contents with the full description's software, troubleshoot, (maybe a forum), update version release and 'how-to-use' of the software and put adsense in the site...

    so the users of your software will come to your site to learn more and click some ads:D...

    Maybe you could target the freeware users by having a site with adsense that contains "Advanced tips and user examples" and link from the software with a text like that.

    What do you think?
